Chinese Playgroup & Enrichment Classes for Toddlers
18 months – 3 years old
Parent-accompanied classes that stimulate the senses

Toddlers are curious little creatures raring to explore the world and absorb what they learn. Our curriculum appeals to their sense of curiosity through elements of suspense, explorative questions from the teacher and plot twists that tickle their funny bone.
We use different elements to engage your child’s senses and make lessons captivating: music and movement, tactile experiences, handicrafts, puppet plays, etc. We also include activities that refine gross and fine motor skills and hone social skills.
The best way to pick up a language is when you need it. Our teachers are trained to optimise teachable moments and encourage children to speak Mandarin. The curriculum also adds new sentences steadily to your child’s language bank and build their sense for Chinese language structures.
Spending quality lesson time with your child builds trust and rapport with your child as he explores and learns about the world. This helps them grow into emotionally stable and satisfied adults.
During our Free Play sessions, toddlers have the opportunity to explore various learning stations tailored to different developmental areas. Each child can engage at their own pace while teachers provide individual support to enhance their fine and gross motor skills.
Our enrichment classes for toddlers incorporate Rhythm & Rhyme activities, which include specially crafted songs that feature repetitive vocabulary and melodic patterns. While enjoying music and rhythm, toddlers enhance their coordination and focus, reinforcing their engagement in the learning process.
Through Storytelling & Drama sessions, toddlers experience the sounds and rhythms of Mandarin in lively and interactive ways. Our educators use engaging narratives and teacher-led skits to reinforce vocabulary and themes, making memorisation enjoyable. Additionally, these activities instil moral lessons, enriching the children’s educational journey with important life values.
Our Sensory Exploration activities offer a hands-on environment in our enrichment classes for toddlers, giving them a chance to interact with various textures, sounds, and materials. By engaging their senses through touching, smelling, and listening, children enhance their vocabulary as they link words to sensory experiences. This form of play promotes verbal expression, fostering language acquisition and communication skills.
Early exposure to Mandarin stimulates multiple areas of the brain, laying a strong foundation for toddler language development. As they listen, speak, and respond in Mandarin, toddlers develop sharper memory, problem-solving skills, and attention control. Bilingualism is also known to improve mental flexibility, helping young learners switch between tasks and languages with ease. Through our Chinese enrichment classes for toddlers in Singapore, we nurture these critical cognitive functions in a fun and engaging way.
Language is a bridge to connection. When toddlers engage in Mandarin conversations, even simple ones, they build confidence and self-expression. Our playgroup environment encourages children to interact, share, and cooperate with peers—boosting empathy and emotional understanding. The shared joy of learning through music, stories, and play helps toddlers feel included and secure, which in turn fosters healthy emotional development and positive social habits.
Starting Mandarin early paves the way for future academic success. Toddlers who are immersed in the language from a young age find it easier to grasp reading and writing later on. By learning to appreciate the sounds, structure, and rhythm of the language now, they develop a natural fluency that gives them a head start in formal education. Our Chinese enrichment classes for toddlers in Singapore aim to make this journey enjoyable and sustainable, ensuring that Mandarin becomes a familiar and rewarding part of their lifelong learning.
Huá is conveniently located in 4 shopping malls around the island – United Square (Novena), Parkway Parade (Marine Parade), Greenwich V (Seletar) and Causeway Point (Woodlands).
Having worked with children of all ages since 1992, we understand what children need at each stage of development. For toddlers with a short attention span, we craft our lessons to be packed with captivating activities.
We build the foundations of early bilingualism by helping children love the language at a young age. This makes all subsequent Chinese learning smoother, as the children actually enjoy their lessons.
At this tender age, toddlers learn through exploring their environment with their senses. Our playgroup programme leans on this to transform fun moments into teaching moments your toddler will soak up like a sponge.
Our passionate teachers have years of experience. All our teachers are native Mandarin speakers and are registered with MOE. They create a nurturing environment that encourages students to do their best.
We place great importance on the safety and well-being of our toddlers. Our facilities are specifically designed for young children, featuring child-proofed areas and age-appropriate equipment. Additionally, we maintain strict hygiene practices by cleaning and sanitising all toys and materials after each session to ensure a safe learning environment for the next group.
Our teachers are dedicated early childhood educators who have a genuine passion for nurturing young learners. They hold relevant qualifications in early childhood education and are trained in our unique Mandarin immersion approach. With fluency in Mandarin, our educators create a supportive atmosphere where toddlers feel comfortable exploring and learning the language.
Recognising that every child is unique, our Chinese Playgroup programme offers a wide range of activities tailored to different learning styles, including visual, auditory, and kinesthetic methods. Our teachers are adept at adjusting their instructional strategies to meet each child's individual needs, ensuring that every toddler receives the support necessary for their personal development.
Yes! Our programme encourages parent involvement by inviting caregivers to accompany their toddlers during classes. This collaborative approach not only enriches the learning experience but also allows parents to gain insights into their child's development and actively support their journey in learning Mandarin.
Not to worry—many toddlers join us with little to no background in Mandarin. Our playgroup is designed to ease them into the language through fun, interactive sessions. Over time, they’ll grow more comfortable and begin to participate more confidently.
